I guess it just represents 4 different commanders with 4 unique forces running into random enemies and having a fight for some reason.

It's all good - just put together 4 different 5 raid fleets. There's enough room in most every fleet to have 4 viable ship combinations at that level.

Not really, since technically there is one commander for all or are they going to rotate players as well :P

You are playing the role of 4 different commanders. Think of it as an ACTA RPG

LOL...thats called B5 2nd Ed RPG :P......but if all parties are happy, it should be fun
 
Please can all those attending print out (and bring) from Burgers ship viewer sheets for each of their four fleets

so for me
fleet 1 is 1 x veshetan 2 x teshlan and 1 Tigara (one from each)
fleet 2 is 2x Veshetan and 1 Tigara (one sheet from each)
fleet 3 is 5 x teshlans (2 sheets for teshlan class)
fleet 4 is 3 x teshlan and 2 x Tigara (one of each)

basically so you can use and throw after each game... it also means we can put them all in a pile and randomly select if we decide on the day to do that.

cheers

uurgh, i hate burgers ship viewer, prefer chernobyls original one and occasionaly LBHs for armageddon ships.
Eh? My printed sheets are virtually identical to Chern's original one (I liked his format and wanted Armageddon ships but he was changing format... thats why I made a ship viewer in the first place!), and the online browseable are very similar to LBH's, except without a "notes" box and with no damage circles.
 
I've got laminates, so forget throwing those bad boys away!

Since my Tinashi models have finally arrived, my fleets are:

Sharlin + Leshath
Tinashi + 3 Ashinatas
2 x Tinashi + 1x Teshlan
Morshin + 2 x Teshlan + 2 x Torotha
 
just as long as we can't tell whats what when we choose is cool

so who can come on sunday?

yours are similar to chernobyls but not vertually identical, i hate the whole 3 boxs on the side thing etc, prefer cherns layout.

Sorry, but where is the logic in that. An Admiral doesnt go to war, with a lottery machine?

No, but who was the last admiral to go into battle with what he wanted? Admirals do not by and large choose what the Navy buys (they probably should, but thats a different kettle of fish), they get what it is available and working.

problem with if you go the mixing of fleets way, people could pick the worst possible fleet for someone to use like 2 orestes and a tethys or a posiedon and 2 assault hyperions etc.

I'll find out tonight, so if you still need anyone come tomorrow, I'll be interested.

EDIT: important question - is it models only?
 
nope models or and counters

its random fleet selection you may not even play with the race you turn up with let alone one of your fleets
 
so everyone pick the worst fleet you can imagine to play with, all the never seen ships cos maybe you could be playing that fleet ;)

Then arrive at the tourney to find it was a trick to eliminate bad sportsmanshp, and everyone is playing their own fleets :D
